Backtracking to the Age of Literature and Art

Chapter 80

Rongcheng hasn't snowed for a long time this year, but the weather is already cold enough.

Tan Kai walked out of his office, shrunk his hands into his sleeves, leaving only two fingers to hold a document, and walked quickly to Yang Xiao's office.

The president's office, which is usually open, also closed the door today. Tan Kai didn't want to knock on the door, so he shouted inside, "President Yang, are you there?"

"Yes, come in."

Tan Kai looked at the door again, but had no choice but to reach out to touch the doorknob, but the stainless steel handle froze all of a sudden.

As soon as the others entered, Yang Xiao hurriedly shouted: "Close the door quickly, don't let the cool wind blow in."

Hearing this, Tan Kai hurriedly closed the door again, then looked up at the direction of the air conditioner, but it wasn't on.

The president's office is equipped with air conditioning and an electric heater, but Yang Xiao is used to saving money and doesn't turn it on very often. Even if it is too cold to affect her work, she will turn on an electric heater.

"Old Tan, what's the matter?" Yang Xiao put down his pen, rubbed his hands, and asked.

Tan Kai smiled and brought the documents in his hand to her, "Two news, one good news and one bad news, which one do you want to hear?"

"Good news."

Tan Kai looked as expected. He had sold it many times. Every time Yang Xiao chose the news first, without exception.

"The good news is that we have received a lot of letters from readers in the past few days, and the volume of letters in the same period is much higher than before."

"What about the bad news?"

"The bad news is that most of these letters are meant to scold us."

"Scolding us?" Yang Xiao looked at Tan Kai suspiciously, "How do I see your expression, doesn't it look like that?"

Tan Kai laughed and said: "Listen to me, these readers did write to scold them, but they all scold the serialization of "Second World". Finished uploading."

Yang Xiao also smiled, "Let me tell you, Lao Tan, you have a wrinkled smile on your face, there must be no bad news. This reaction from readers is obviously a good performance of "Second World". When the topic is made, strike while the iron is hot. In addition, we must always pay attention to the market situation to ensure that we can continue to supply from this issue.”

Tan Kai nodded, and he also thought of what Yang Xiao said.

Serialization is a bit "defeating", but it has many benefits. As long as the story is exciting enough, readers can keep buying it.

And it will not only affect the sales of subsequent periods, but also affect back.

For example, if a reader buys the next issue first and sees the second part of "Second World", it is very likely that they can't help but look for the first part.

In addition, if the book will be published in the future, it can be regarded as a pretext.

"Also." Yang Xiao seemed to think of something again, "Leave more of the interactive page in the next issue, and select some mild comments about "Second World" and put them in, so that everyone can interact more around this novel. . Readers also have a herd mentality, and seeing so many people reading this novel, they will not want to miss it.”

"In addition, add a lottery page to the last page of the next issue, as long as you write a letter to comment on "Second World", you will have a chance to win a three-month issue of the magazine, a total of [-] copies."

"Is one hundred copies a bit too much?" Tan Kai asked.

Yang Xiao shook his head, "Not much, if you send out these hundred copies, you will definitely get more, let's put a long line to catch big fish. Now that we have given up, what can't we let go of? Besides, one of these two issues is one. Jinling will sell more than [-] copies."

"Well, it is conservatively estimated that one hundred more copies will be sold in the first issue. Yu Dong's appeal in their school is still quite strong, which is a bit beyond my expectations."

Although there is no evidence that the extra sales were supported by Jin Yi's students, both Yang Xiao and Tan Kai believed so.

"I remember something else..." Yang Xiao grabbed his chin and thought about it for a long time, and finally remembered: "Oh, by the way, did the screenwriter from the United States you mentioned last time get in touch with Yu Dong? ,what's the result?"

Speaking of this, Tan Kai said ashamed: "I didn't ask about Yu Dong in my last letter."

"Oh, Lao Tan, how can I say hello? Why don't you care about this matter at all." Yang Xiao sighed, "It's a pity that I wasn't there when he came last time, otherwise I would definitely follow up with him. He chatted. This is a rare opportunity, if "One Day" can really be made into a movie by a company in the United States, the impact will not be small. "

"It's really my fault, mainly because I was thinking that the film and television adaptation rights of "One Day" were not in our hands, so I didn't feel embarrassed to talk about it."

"Forget it, it's all over." Yang Xiao waved his hand, "Lao Tan, send a letter to Yu Dong these two days and ask how the result is."

……

When Yu Dong read about the stock subscription certificate in the newspaper, there was only a little over a week before the official issuance. over.

January No. 19, after he returned to Shanghai, he first went to the Industrial and Commercial Bank of Hengfeng Road to buy [-] stock subscription certificates.

The purchase process was simpler than he imagined, because no one bought it at all. Instead, the staff of the bank had been selling to customers who went to the bank to do other business.

The more they sell, the less people are afraid to buy.

After all, it costs 30 yuan for a certificate, and if you buy it, you may not win the lottery.If the purchase is not successful, the 30 yuan will be in vain.

Now most people earn only one or two hundred yuan a month, and 30 yuan is already a lot of money for an ordinary family.

So when Yu Dong proposed to buy [-] copies, the bank staff looked overjoyed and wished he could take the certificate without reading any documents.

Later, Yu Dong bought a total of more than 8000 subscription certificates at various other sales outlets.

Father Yu Hansheng saw that his son ran out as soon as he got home. At first, he didn't take it seriously. After a few days, he couldn't help asking Yu Dong: "Son, you go out every day, and when you come back, go into the small cabinet. What are you doing, messing around?"

Yu Dong said to his father solemnly, "Your son's wife is already here, and she has to help me take care of it at ordinary times."

When he heard that it was his son's wife, Yu Hansheng suddenly became very nervous, "What, why is it related to my wife?"

"It's not the time yet, so I can't say it yet. Anyway, Dad, take care of it for me, and don't tell anyone else."

"Okay, I don't even tell your mother."

"It's not so..."

"Why not, your mother has a big mouth. If you let her know, it will definitely be a bad thing. Your cabinet is not safe, and it is easy to see inside. I will get some books and put them on the outer layer to block them. It is absolutely safe. ."

"I still think you shouldn't hide this from my mother..."

Yu Hansheng said resolutely, "Listen to my son, those who make big things don't care about the details."

"..."

Yu Dong scratched his head and said hello to his mother who was standing at the door of the main room.
